We liked the room….. the bed was wonderful. We didn’t like having no hot water, no housekeeping while we were there. We felt like we had been forgotten about. The garbages were never emptied, the towels were never refreshed… we asked for hand towels or facecloths …… didn’t get either. Would not stay there again

The apartment was pretty good with the kitchen. The microwave was a little difficult to get to and operate being on top of the fridge. I think some paper towels would have been good along with a couple dish cloths. Maybe some tall plastic cups would be good. In the bathroom, toilet paper didn't have a holder and probably some wash cloths and hand towels would be good.

The Villa Serena is a quaint property in old historic Mazatlan. When you arrive you get a feel of old country living with the courtyard and all the beautiful tiles. There are several restaurants in the area so finding a decent meal was easy, although we were there for the eclipse and the town was overwhelmed with tourists, so finding a meal wasn't as easy as it would have been normally. It is also conveniently located so that virtually everything in the central district is walkable. We walked to the basilica, the observatory, down the Malecon and elsewhere. Rarely did we need a taxi and it was usually because we were simply too tired after walking all day. The downsides? Well we had to go up two flights of stairs and climb through a bougainvillea forest to get to our room. Every time I came or went, I was attacked by this thorny hedge. Another factor is that since these are 'apartments' they only clean or replace towels and linens on request. Not a downside, pre se, just be aware this is not your typical hotel. It is certainly quiet and you can leave your windows open if you wish.

Great location! Right in historic Mazatlan with walking to the beach less than 10 mins. Tons of restaurants and shops nearby. This is an excellent place for a quiet retreat. The caretaker was so sweet and helpful. There is a small kitchen for food prep and so many patio areas to enjoy. It was a magical location.

To whom it may concern, both my wife and myself thoroughly enjoyed our recent (brief) stay at Villa Serena, from the old world Vibe of the Centro Historico, to the ease of accessibility for all the local amenaties, ie: restaurants, shopping, local culture, access to bus transportation etc. And our hosts Marthe and Daisy were always accomodating no matter the request. We also enjoyed meeting and socializing with the other long term guests each evening to share knowledge and updates of local activities and or places to eat. Not sure when...but we will definitely be going back. R&M

Fantastic staff, welcoming and helpful, A+! Location is perfect, central yet quiet. The apartments are basic, well maintained. Comfortable matress. Little privacy due to the closeness of each unit and you can hear your neighbours. Its a haven for old gringos, you wont meet Mexicans like in hotels of the golden zone. Lovely rooftop patios.

My wife and I have stayed here a few times. And we absolutely love it. The staff are so nice and helpful. It’s like a family when you are there with the other guest and the staff and everybody’s so friendly and talking there so many options for restaurants for shopping. It’s a beautiful neighborhood it’s very safe the bed was so comfortable, the shower had strong pressure and very hot water. Everything you need to make meals were there, we most definitely will be staying there.

Villa Serena was truly an amazing place to stay -- I loved having access to a full kitchen while there, and it was so well kept and clean. It felt like a beautiful oasis to return to every day and the courtyard is even more picturesque than these photos. Note that it's an apartment, not a hotel, so some of those hotels amenities won't be present, but the staff was still incredibly helpful.

The property is in a very good location. It is walking distance to many places. The property was clean when we checked in but there was no cleaning services. We had to contact the manager for towels and toilet paper.

Excellent location in Centro! Close to Malecon and Plaza Machado. Very quiet. Street parking wasn't an issue, but there is a paid, secured lot one short block away. The staff doesn't speak English, but are extremely friendly and helpful. I had a medical emergency, and Javier guided us to a doctor, and helped me thru the whole process including the consultation and buying my meds since I don't speak Spanish very well. There is no way you could ever get that kind of service in the States!! After we made a vow, "amigos siempre, siempre!!" Only issue is that email is never answered (seems to be a Denmark address??)

I enjoyed my stay there very much. There seems to be a daily afternoon gathering in the patio of people staying there. They came & went as the afternoon went on. Immediately I felt welcomed. I got lots of tips of where to eat, shop, entertainment. It was very comfortable, clean, kept up. The lady tending the rooms was very nice, very helpful, kind to me. I was alone/solo during my stay but never felt lonely. I would definitely stay there again.

This was our second time in Mazatlan, and since we enjoyed being in the centro historico last time, we decided to book a central place again. I will start with the down-side first... First of all, our airport shuttle driver had no clue how to get to Villa Serena. His English was minimal, as was my Spanish. Eventually we figured it out. Upon arrival, the street gate was locked and the caretaker (Marie) popped out of her little office just inside the gate, but didn't acknowledge us. She went on for at least several more minutes on the phone, but never once held up an index finger as if to say "moment please". When she finally did let us in, she was mildly friendly (or mildly irritated, depending on how you want to interpret her personality)... throughout our stay, it always seemed that we were irritating her if we asked for an extra towel or roll of toilet paper. What you need to know is that Villa Serena is NOT a hotel. The Expedia description indicated that there was daily housekeeping. Again, not true. You're pretty much on your own to change your bedding, towels and toilet paper, and you need to ask Marie... that is, if you can find her. The other drawback - without daily housekeeping - is that the floors (all of them...main living area, bathroom and bedroom) getting very dirty daily. Without a broom or mop, it makes it impossible to keep the apartment clean. Okay, that was pretty much it for the negatives. On the positive side, Villa Serena is in a fantastic location.
